i keep missing the drops

#

it was on sale for a good period of time but i still missed it

normal hawk
#

I want a GPU

#

But i also wanna get a house. Decisions decisions

#

I'll get a gpu and just render a house in 8k

#

I would build a mini itx build but I don’t want to replace my motherboard since I’m fairly fond of it

The housing market sucks here right now

normal hawk
#

I can get a VA homeowners loan which means no down payment required... 🤤 And if i rent out a room + garage (i don't drive and people tend to pay more for a place with garage access) and go back to my job I can definitely afford mortgage and the bills.

#

Living room would be empty. I don't own much of anything. Just gaming stuff.

green harness
#

Oh yeah, the VA loans are pretty good. I'd be looking at an HFA first time homeowner loan or something like that. It's just that not a lot is on the market here and prices are very high 😫

normal hawk
#

Prices don't seem too bad in Minnesota, might look for a foreclosure though and fix it up.

raven thunder
#

get a couple hundred gpus and mine

#

till you get enough for a house

#

😂

hot folio
#

For the money of a couple hundred gpus you could buy a house😂

#

Assuming each one is 900-1000

slim vessel
#

i don't even want a house. i'll just build out a rv

normal hawk
slim vessel
#

conversion van is what i want to do

#

well what i really want is to convert a articulated bus, but till then

normal hawk
#

Issue is i don't want wanna drive.

#

I like my E-Bike life

slim vessel
#

in that case, get a bike trailer

normal hawk
#

Lol

slim vessel
#

i've seen some built out to decient but small micro campers

high surge
#

GL guys, win anything but the 6700XT. Trust me you don't want it for $960+

normal hawk
#

Like this

high surge
#

The 3060 ti and 3070 are so similarly priced but i won't even be mad if I win the 3060 ti instead of the 3070, ebay and amazon prices are bonkers

tardy pebble
#

intel graphics 520 is the superior way to game

calm crow

Now to wait 7 hours to be told I didn’t win

yep, best of luck to you, and even more luck to me

hello

#

i do have a problem.... half a year ago i bought a xfx rx 580 and when in gaming(sometimes), the signal from my gpu disappears and a pink led lights up

#

does someone know what that pink led means

fossil talon
#

@tender mulch ^^^

#

Oh he's offline

steel rune
#

do you have a hypothesis?

#

is it a faulty gpu?

fossil talon
#

Yea I have no idea, I'm going to ping some others here

heady turtle
steel rune
steel rune
heady turtle
steel rune
#

and i don't find anything usefull on ggogle

fossil talon
#

Honestly I never heard of a pink led error, just red or blue

#

Likely it's red but a dimmed out led

steel rune
#

maybe

#

i could sent you a pic when it's happening again

fossil talon
#

The only thing occurs to me with a red led for a RX570 is that not enough power is reaching the GPU, so maybe the power connectors aren't connected

#

I can't help much though, I don't know much about RX 570s

steel rune
#

it's a 12 pin conector

#

and i have a 650 w psu

fossil talon
#

8+4 right?

tender mulch
#

12 pin connector???

steel rune
#

ya

tender mulch
#

Red light means no power

fossil talon
#

Ok vintage is here

tender mulch
#

Ohhhh

#

2x6 pin

steel rune
#

ok my bad i think it's 6

#

i don't reallly know

#

unless

fossil talon
#

Yea Vintage knows everything, he can help

tender mulch
#

I dunno everything but I know the red light on that GPU means a power issue

steel rune
#

hmmm

#

is 650 enough?

slim vessel
#

what i'm seeing says that white is an indicator for another issue, so maybe it's just red and white, and not pink

tender mulch
#

650 should be enough provided you're running 2 separate power cables

steel rune
#

whait a sec.... i-ll send you a pic

#

don't laugh

#

well this is it

#

for the moment it's running

tender mulch
#

Blue means good power, red means bad power or card fault

steel rune
#

.....

#

Well

fossil talon
#

Is it flashing, just curious

steel rune
#

No

fossil talon
#

ok nvm

steel rune
#

It's the red one lit

#

It looked like pink

#

To me at least

#

It seems the amd software isn't showing on screen anymore

#

It may be a driver issue?

#

I'll ddu it just in case

#

And see if this persists

tender mulch
#

That's a scam company

#

If you don't mind losing your money go for it

karmic crag
#

way too good to be true

#

c'mon it's like 200 under msrp kekw

high surge
#

so real! $350 for a $500 MSRP card and that's just for reference. Such a real bargain!

#

go ahead and buy it and enjoy your picture of a 3070

tender mulch
#

I doubt you'd even get a picture XD

high surge
#

or maybe a 3070 shroud glued to a GT710 kekw

#

just play the one in an million game of Newegg shuffle

heady turtle
#

Nah it's a private site they don't gotta send 💩

#

At least if it was from eBay you could get a pic

normal hawk
#

Why do all the cable extension packs only come with 2 8 pin cables 😩

high surge
#

from my rule of thumb, MOST of the time, if it they don't accept paypal = HUGE red flag.

heady turtle
heady turtle
high surge
#

only exception I can think of is Amazon but that's because eBay is their direct competitor and PayPal owns eBay

normal hawk
heady turtle
normal hawk
#

Oh okay

heady turtle
#

3 isn't needed

#

Even tho the rog one has it iirc

normal hawk
#

Was thinking I'd need 3

#

What brands are good for extensions?

heady turtle
#

Cable mod

#

Or lianli strimmer

#

Or Silverstone

high surge
#

please newegg... please please

heady turtle
#

Because regular 3090 tdp is 350w but rog is upped to 400w

#

Basically, the pcie slot can provide 75w of power

#

Then each 8 pin has 150w

#

So 2x 8pin +slot power is 375w

#

Why not

#

Extra perf

#

Idk mb they're using it for rendering and want to shorten their times by 5-10%

sweet cloud
flat bridge
#

pretty sure hes implying he hasnt been selected yet

normal hawk
#

I was selected for a 5950x and a 3060 but i had fallen asleep both times

#

Cause I'm deployed currently so it's later than I'd usually stay up since I work mornings as well as PT

inland lily
#

I was selected for the GIGABYTE RX 6700 XT and B550 motherboard

livid idol
#

Not terrible if you need a motherboard

sweet cloud
#

Yea, I just got a b550 and its good

slim vessel
#

i joined in less than 2 minutes, and havn't heard anything yet

mental knoll
#

if i win the shuffle i will be able to build a pc and put my laptop to rest

sweet cloud
mental knoll

sweet cloud
#

hallow palm
mental knoll
hybrid kettle
hallow palm
#

you should try to get a

#

3060 ti fe

#

if possible

#

probably the best value in gpu rn

mental knoll
#

thats what i have entered in the shuffle for

#

im not trying to spend more than 550 for it though>

hybrid kettle
#

Or 3060ti evga card

hallow palm
#

fe is only on bestbuy

#

yeah evga cards are probably the best

#

theyve gone up in price the least id say

hybrid kettle
#

Tuf 3060/3060ti both work

heady turtle
#

A 3060 ti is deff possible for 550

#

Yeah either or

hallow palm
#

a 3060 for 550 is yikes

heady turtle
#

Ti*

hallow palm
#

you can get a 3070 fe for that much

#

oh

hybrid kettle
#

Gigabyte eagle 3060ti

hallow palm
#

yeah

#

xc3 ultra is great

#

stays so cool

heady turtle
hallow palm
#

at least on the 3070

heady turtle
#

But also fe is rare af

hallow palm
#

yeah fe only at bestbuy

#

i got the fe twice

mental knoll
#

the graphics cards are too expensive right now, shouldnt 2070s be around 300$

hallow palm
#

ended up getting an xc3 ultra

#

am happy

#

@mental knoll yes

#

but

#

demand

heady turtle
mental knoll
#

the miners have screwed us all

heady turtle
#

Mainly not miners

#

Some miners yea

tender mulch
#

Mainly people like you and me

hallow palm
#

10700f

#

hmm

heady turtle
#

But mostly just huge home demand

hallow palm
#

how does 10700f compare to a

#

11600k

heady turtle
mental knoll
#

how did you guys get your cards at best buy, ive been waking up between 1-3 am and looking

heady turtle
#

But mb they want the extra 2 cores

mental knoll
#

online

hallow palm
#

yes i can compare it

heady turtle
#

They sell during the day

hallow palm
#

why can i not compare it

#

they are at similar prices

#

except the 11600k is cheaper

heady turtle
#

Cuz you need a z board and actually need to oc to get 11600k worth

#

And better cooler

hallow palm
#

does a non k

#

11600

#

even

#

exist

#

i cant find one on bestbuy

#

comparing a 10700kf

#

the 11600 is

#

hmm

#

they are pretty similar

#

the 11600 has better

#

single core

#

and the 10700 better multi

heady turtle
hallow palm
#

also the 11600k has better graphics

#

i mean the fdoesnt even

#

have

#

but if the dude cant get a gpu

#

uhd 750 will be a lot better then 650

heady turtle
#

Yeah but they have 10700 not 10700k

Alexa, play "Jeprody Think! theme 5 hour loop"

lyric plinth

Is $520 CAD decent for a 1650?

#

Or should I just try and limp it through this crunch with my 2gb 1030?

slim vessel

this isn't crunch, this is new normal

lyric plinth
#

Wot

#

No

slim vessel
#

and youv'e heard about the soon to be storage shortage

lyric plinth
#

700$ for a 2060

#

Good?

lyric plinth
#

That’s the cheapest I’ve found them

#

...

heady turtle
#

those gpus have been discontinued for a while

#

you can only buy them used

#

2060 is supposed to be like 350 or 400

lyric plinth
#

Honestly I’m happy with a used

heady turtle
#

yeah but not for 700

long lake
#

Anyways, does anyone know how much superior a RX 5700 XT is to the RX 5500 XT?

heady turtle
#

a good bit

#

5700xt is 2070 super perf basciallay

#

that was a bad mispelling

long lake
#

I understand though

#

Lol

#

What is the RX 5500 XT compared to?

heady turtle
#

about a 1650 super

long lake
#

Alright, thank you for your help.

heady turtle
#

np

summer condor
#

so i want to put this in my part list

#

so naturally i need 3 8 pin pcie

#

the psu i want only has one 6+2, trying to get he rm750x white

lone pond
#

yeah this one is my dream card uh

heady turtle
summer condor
#

im still confused, these psu's only have one 6+2 pcie

#

but the 3080 requires three 8 pins

#

is one bridged?

#

i found this

#

but if top right is correct

#

then why is bottom left wrong

static rock
#

bottom left is only one cable

summer condor
#

so what about mobo

#

it has 8pin and 4 pin

#

is having one cable fine there?

#

yes

#

eps power

heady turtle
#

If not just get a revolution df 850w

#

It has 3 pcie connects

charred remnant
#

Why is that bottom one wrong?

summer condor
#

i want the white rm750x, im just gonna get one 8+8 pcie and one 8 pcie

#

its because its using one cable

#

even though i think im currently doing that lol

heady turtle
summer condor
#

p500a

charred remnant
#

I get that it's just one cable but is it too much amperage for the cable? Or what.

heady turtle
#

So you won't see the white then

summer condor
#

yeah

#

you will

#

the shroud doesnt cover psu face on p500a

heady turtle
#

I see

heady turtle
summer condor
#

this build isn't gonna be about cost efficiency, i mean im certainly not gonna be burning money but its gonna be a show rig, so i might as well be burning money lmao

jagged sequoia
#

Burn little a money, as a treat

heady turtle
#

Looks like you might be able to do that

#

I'm pretty sure anyway

summer condor
#

yeah i figured 8+8 and 8 would be fine

#

and then for the cpu im just gonna do one 8+4

heady turtle
#

Ehh what's the max power draw of the card?

summer condor
#

3080, dont know max

heady turtle
#

Hold on lemme see what gn says

summer condor
#

ROG Strix

#

400 watts

#

asus recommends 750w psu

heady turtle
#

400w

#

What

#

Tf

#

Holy

#

You'll need the 3rd direct cable then

summer condor
#

i think that includes the 3090

hybrid kettle
#

Asus cards love their power

summer condor
#

8 and 8+8 should be fine

#

for a 3080 most definitely

heady turtle
hybrid kettle
#

3080 on a 750w is sketchy but they did a 3090 ahh

heady turtle
#

375w max with 2 cables

heady turtle
hybrid kettle
#

Yeah the sf750 is platinum I just realized too

hallow palm
#

daisy chained

#

yikes

heady turtle
hallow palm
#

yeah 3070 is great

#

on 650w

#

5600x 3070

summer condor
hallow palm
#

boosts past 2100

summer condor
#

read on reddit so definitely gonna have to do more looking

heady turtle
# summer condor

Probably okay but just use the 3rd power connector since it's there

heady turtle
summer condor
#

so 3 separate 8 pins

#

gotcha

heady turtle
#

Yeah

#

You only need more than 8 for cpu if you do exteme overclocking anyway

tender mulch
#

They aren't in stock

slim vessel
#

most of us are in the raffles

tender mulch
#

Newegg Shuffle or best buy drop, maybe Amazon drop if you get lucky

how do you find the drop dates?

Yes I got my grachics card in a raffle

I recently took my gtx 1070 out of my pc and when I put it back in I wasn't able to get a display on my tv my tv recognizes the scource but doesn't display anything even when I move my mouse around does anyone know what is going on and also could the problem be dust related

#

Quick extra note my gpus lights turn on

#

The fans spin and make a small clicking noise but turn off after a second and this will repeat over and over

vital pivot
#

Stormer. Shut down the pc. Swap the HDMi cable and power it back up.

#

Swap = switch ends plugged into the pc/tv.

#

Also verify the input you are using on the tv

river wadi
#

Already did that

vital pivot
#

Are you using a display port adapter?

#

Do you have a monitor or another tv to test with?

river wadi
#

I am not using display port I am using hdmi

#

And yes I will go quickly grab a different display

vital pivot
#

Also what is your cpu?

river wadi
#

2600x

#

Also switching to a different monitor made no difference

vital pivot
#

Power it down and reseat the video card

river wadi
#

Did that a couple of times and even tried putting it into a different pc still no difference

#

The fan is working properly though

@vital pivot thanks for the help it is up and working now

Good deal sir, glad to offer my meager assistance.

@rain ether same.

Just told the wife I was in for the evga products including the 3090

#

I’d even sell some of my doge to get it

slim vessel
#

should i just get a workstation card? i mean like i will be doing hybrid tasks. transcoding, streaming, games

silver wren
#

Idk

slim vessel
#

any of the sub $1k, so WX4100 or WX7100

silver wren
slim vessel
#

considering half the games i play are more physics sandbox then game...

#

idk

silver wren
#

Well idk

#

I’d rather get a use card

silver wren
#

Maybe an rx 550 just to wait until you get a good gpu

slim vessel
#

the wx4100 looks to be the workstation 550

silver wren
#

Just make sure any card you get you know what you can do with it

slim vessel
#

why am i here trying to win a drop when there is now perfectly acceptable stock of RX cards? just like a week ago, they were all out

#

So I’m nearly done with my build I need a graphics card should I wait ? Or buy sum now ?

slim vessel
#

yes. the answer is yes, you should simultaniously buy and wait

heady stratus
#

If the answer is disposable income, then it really doesn't matter

tender mulch
#

Right, how many hours of your life are you willing to spend on over paying for a scalped GPU? An extra $100 at $15 an hour is 7 working hours, almost a full work day. 😉

Hi, I have a problem with my graphics card, and it is that, apart from not working, it makes a noise like electrical or burned (and it is not the fan because it does it without it), and does not display video. The fans work and the graphics card heats up, and within about 15 seconds smoke comes out, the part I do not know, with the multimeter I have not seen any short. If someone helps me particularly, it would be appreciated.

#

Well, stop turning it on if it's smoking.

lone pond
#

but what is

#

i think is the chip

#

You could be doing damage to other parts.

i know, but i dont know what is

should I do reballing?

I can't help much more than that, because fixing GPUs is not something I know a lot about.

#

ok thanks

vital pivot
#

If it’s smoking then look at the card

#

If you can’t find a burnt wire or capacitor or even identify the damaged component then give it to someone who has experience with electronic repair because you are clueless.

acoustic ginkgo
#

I gave the only advice I could. But I would have thought "stop turning it on if it's smoking" was obvious.

heady turtle
#

Or return the card if it's new

magic wing
#

if it has seen the magic smoke there is a very high probablity that its not fixable

acoustic ginkgo
#

I'd check the PSU to see if it didn't decide to partially fail and take the GPU with it.

heady turtle
#

Maybe if it's a horrible psu but most likely bad card or something

magic wing
#

what psu you got

#

and also what card?

#

@lone pond

lone pond
#

R9 270X Corsair VS650

#

cv550 sorry

magic wing
#

white or orange?

lone pond
#

white

magic wing
#

Yeah thats a tier d unit

lone pond
#

but i tested with other psu and still not orking

#

working*

magic wing
#

Yeah ur card is dead

#

and its ur psu that killed it

lone pond
#

i know

magic wing
#

Then what was the point in asking?

lone pond
#

but i need what it is

acoustic ginkgo
#

I'm afraid the GPU is probably dead already. I would advise not using that PSU anymore either and pray your mobo and CPU survived.

lone pond
#

i can show a photo later

magic wing
#

See ur graphics card is beyond the point of repair

lone pond
#

i think is 2 VRAM burned

magic wing
#

there is nothing you can do with it except tossing it into the bin

acoustic ginkgo
#

If it was dead fan/dried up thermal paste... that would be fixable. This is not.

lone pond
#

there is flux under the vram, i bought it very cheap broken to try to fix it

#

if they did a reflow

magic wing
#

Its like uve got a burnt piece of wood and ur saying how can i make it into a tree

#

There is no coming back from a smoking anything

acoustic ginkgo
#

And this is why we don't buy terrible PSUs. It leads to dead parts. And this is about the worst time ever to fry your GPU.

lone pond
#

i bought it yesterday

magic wing
#

and a reflow would end up costing as much as a new card anyway because that kind of specialised labour costs

magic wing
lone pond
#

2nd

#

broken

acoustic ginkgo
#

Well, that's money down the drain

magic wing
lone pond
#

20 euros

magic wing
#

if it was broken to begin with

stark folio
#

Even if it was cheap, 20 euros you arent getting back plus anything else that might have broke

magic wing
#

My advise - get a better psu

lone pond
rustic hatch
#

Needed an all white case that wasn’t 150+
@unkempt frigate why not 150+ u definitely have the money for a better case

lone pond
magic wing
lone pond
#

the psu

magic wing
#

YES BUT 1 MONTH OF WHAT

I repeat, this is why you don't cheap out on the power supply.

i bought it in april

#

new

magic wing
#

then thats an F

lone pond
#

i think is not a bad psu

magic wing
#

Its a bad psu

lone pond
#

cv550?

magic wing
#

yes

rustic hatch
#

You right i also like this case
@unkempt frigate 011 thoooo

acoustic ginkgo
#

Don't look at the brand. Check the model.

lone pond
#

i check the certification

magic wing
magic wing
lone pond
#

yes

acoustic ginkgo
#

feels like she's banging her head against a wall

magic wing
#

not a standard of good psus

unkempt frigate
lone pond
#

ok

#

i just need help

rustic hatch
#

That case is all I’ve been seeing on social media, really worth the hype ?
@unkempt frigate I mean there is real nothing bad to say about it

magic wing
rustic hatch
#

Airflow looks size it’s all there

magic wing
#

ur current one is trash

acoustic ginkgo
#

Advice was given. It's just not what you wanted to hear.

unkempt frigate
lone pond
#

i have a gtx 960 and works very good with that psu

rustic hatch
#

Yeah but than what do I do with my current case ...? I’ll feel bad if I just toss it lol
@unkempt frigate idk ebay I think the 011 is a tiny bit more than that case anyway but it has no fans

magic wing
lone pond
#

there are no lows

lone pond
magic wing
#

Look we gave you our advice. accept it if you want. In any case, stop asking.

lone pond
#

yes yes

acoustic ginkgo
#

I'm pretty sure it's the same advice the even more tech-oriented people would give. We're not being mean, we're trying to save you from frying your still functional GPU with that iffy power supply.

unkempt frigate
rustic hatch
#

Yeah..well at the time I bought the case the 011 was selling for like 200$ but maybe later on. I’ll change cases. All my money went into all the parts lol so I didn’t really splurge on case
@unkempt frigate you might of been looking at the xl one 😅 there is xl normal and mini but they are all for atx...

acoustic ginkgo
#

Because you really don't want to fry your GPU at the moment. The market is screwed to heck.

unkempt frigate
rustic hatch
#

Hmm but it also sucks that I gotta buy fans separately that’s another 150+ for decent fans that are white and all the same model
@unkempt frigate think the mini is just under 100 and yeah decent fans are expensive

unkempt frigate
rustic hatch
#

The 011 mini on Newegg is 120$ rn
@unkempt frigate neweggs pricing is all over the place you should be able to find it somewhere else for about 90-100

#

Idk if the snow edition costs more but that’s the fully white one where as the normal white one has bits of black

Cant wait for a “I wasn’t selected email” then hear about 1 person winning multiple times in the discord.

#

This is like the 3rd time someone has posted that statement @winged pendant

winged pendant
#

Newegg need to change that. It’s BS that someone wins multiple times. Especially multiple GPU selections.

#

Kinda defeats the purpose.

heady turtle
winged pendant
#

I’m venting though lol

heady turtle
#

Not everyone buys after winning, why shouldn't they be aloud upgrade from a 3060 placeholder to a 3080 or 3090 for example, what if they are buying another card for their s/o or siblings etc

halcyon plover
#

@winged pendant you think it would help if it was limited to 1 gpu?

#

People would open more accounts..

vital pivot
#

I have not purchased the last 2 wins and let them go to others.

#

Also it helps if you actually by items from Newegg besides having an account.

mental knoll
#

thats pretty cool of you

vital pivot
#

I have built over a hundred systems with new egg purchases.

#

And the account I use was opened in 2004.

So yeah.

Nah. I have not one in weeks

Besides the 2 items I have kept

#

A PS5 bundle I have sold all the others at the cost I paid to family and friends.

#

Good Luck everyone lol. Ask Daarken if he can land you one lol.

heady turtle
#

Bit misleading but

vital pivot
#

The last card I won was 2400 after tax and shipping. Not many people have the coinage to pay that.

winged pendant
vital pivot
#

Yeah it is misleading.

#

It’s more then 100k and it’s more then dozens of tries.

heady turtle
#

I mean there is 100k people entering but it's misleading because every item isn't getting 100k enteres and stuff

halcyon plover
#

And there are like 300 items

#

Probably

winged pendant
#

True. I bet 100k people aren’t selecting 1 item though.

#

I’m curious how much back stock they have when they put items on the shuffle?

just entered now i have to pray

winged pendant
#

Well don’t choose what you don’t need and your family and friends can get the shuffle instead of using you... for some odd reason.

#

Simple.

vital pivot
#

Every time I have entered I have selected all of the items in the shuffle. That’s why I won a PS5.

#

Now I only select evga products and that’s it or I don’t enter.

mental knoll
#

with the shuffle you only win the right to buy it right?

That correct Red

Ive only selected ekwb compatible 3090s, and really only wanted a strix one. So I had to sit out for very many

heady turtle
# normal hawk I do

Because people would just buy because card and it would sit in their storage, at least atx or matx is way more likely to be used

heady turtle
normal hawk
#

Itx boards are more expensive, so a decent amount of people wouldn't go for the combo if they weren't going to use it

winged pendant
#

I’m not going to use anything the GPUs are paired with anyways lol.

#

I mean i guess but still a lot of people will absorb that into the cost of the gpu and resell or let it just sit in their wardrobe

They do sell individual ones, and others are bundled with motherboards and such

Recently went to MC Tustin and I asked if they have any 3000 series on stock but they told me that I can only acquire the gpu if I buy whole rig from them

and ill have to pay $200 for the building fee, I think

That might just be all they had in stock at the time

Then again, each branch is free to do things their own way
